I must confess that focusing on my work today is more difficult than usual. For those who do not know, my hometown of Manitoba has led to an invisible scale since the 1997 flooding of the Great King, facing unprecedented outbreaks in hundreds of wildfires in huge northern and eastern forests.
Yesterday Globe and Mail The newspaper summarizes the gravity of the situation.
Manitoba Premier WAB KINEW has declared an emergency for at least 30 days by spreading several forest fires throughout the entire state so that more than 17,000 people evacuate the house.
The province demanded that the Canadian army flew to a safer area in some northern parts of the country, KINEW said on Wednesday evening, a few hours after receiving military support from Prime Minister Mark Carney. The majority of them will be temporarily accepted by Winnipec, which is being re -entered to become a large evacuation center.
KINEW creaks loudly with an emergency warning, saying, “This is the biggest evacuation manitova that can be seen in the living memories of most people.” For the first time, it is not a fire in a region. We have a fire in all regions. “
An evacuation order for the mining city flin flon, which is more than 820 km north of Winnipeg, has been issued, and about 5,000 people live along the Manitoba-Sasca Latch One border.
Pimicikamak Cree Nation, Cross Lake, Norway House, and Mathias Colomb First National Nation in Pukatawagan near PAS should be empty to the foot of Nelson River, the northern community of the northern community.
Meanwhile, the province advises residents of Eastern Manitoba to continue to prepare for further evacuation with emergency kits and automotive fuels, and about 31,200 hectares of fire remain incompetent along the border with Ontario.
Today, this spring forest fire, which spreads to the eastern and northern manitoba, is one of the most destructive things in my week. More than 100 fires have consumed almost 4,000 square kilometers of forests, and 10 times the size of Winnipec has an emergency shelter at several hockey stadiums, and the indoor football complex has accommodated people.
When many fellow manitobas are in a hurry to pack their lives and families, drive south or again for the safety of Winnipeg, it is difficult to go on my regular work day when they do not know when they see their homes or when they see them again. Due to the difficulties and worries of the United States, the largest trade partner, we must confess that they are so hard on the heel of shock imposed on Canadians, sometimes stressed and overwhelming. I have thrown a recent home computer accident and a serious tax mistake committed by my former financial planner a year later. yet My bank is waiting for a favorable resolution. And do that. I know that I am still lucky compared to many people living on this earth, but I still have to deal with it. And sometimes, I couldn’t handle it well.
One of the lessons I brought in a stressful situation last year is that I have to focus on the electrons rather than to control what I can control and what I do not and what I do. This also means that sometimes I chose to retire from a small social media that I still consume.Most reddit, I read anonymous) Do not deliberately read news media to preserve my mental and emotional health.
mannersExcept for changing shopping habits, it has zero control.) I avoided mainstream news media on the evening and weekends. I focused on cleaning and reconstructing the vast inventory of my major life avatar, Vanity Fair. And I know what I’m doing well. Investing time and energy in what I can controlRather than being depressed and anxious compared to many other things I couldn’t control. It is the advantage of a comprehensive hobby!
Find a small niche, a small happy space, and build a safe refuge when you have to do something to protect your mental state from confusion, madness, cruelty, and the heartbreaking of the real world. Even if you can only go out for 30 minutes or hours at a time, the flowing state while pursuing a compulsive small hobby gives you a chance to avoid the brain.. Interestingly (at least, interesting to me) is to enter this state when writing this blog post.
Anyway, return to the original point of this blog post: My world is now burning literally or literally. It will be a long and hot summer. I still haven’t made any decisions about what I will do in this blog, but I will still post often. And if you believe -pray for us to surround Manitoba who surrounded us. thank you.
